If the Recipe resulted in spell scroll, the recipe is converted to the new systematic spell research system.

If the Recipe did not result in a spell scroll, it was simply copied to the new container with no changes except that it uses the new container. This includes things such as the runed swatches.

The exception is any "training" runes that may have used the "books" I no longer feel that these are necessary, as you can easily gain the skills in the systematic system past what the training runes gave.

There are not going to be any "new" spell recipes this expansion. If it was not already in the systematic system and if it was not in the old system, then a recipe was not made for it.

The "Stationary" drops will be made to drop worldwide and not just in TSS.

The old drops will be evaluated and at some point removed in order to have less junk drop in the world. This may not be done at the expansion release, but it will happen. If they are used in another recipe such as celestial essence or some tinkering combines, they will continue to drop.

From my reading of this, it does include rarer spells such as RGC. (Or, as Szork calls it, RCG.)

The changes have all been made, just they are going to discontinue the old system now. Last year(?) they made old spells (levels <61) researchable with the new systematic system but allowed you to still use the old pages and words to make those same spells. Now they are going to require the new systematic system and discontinue the old system.

As far as I recall, the highest trivial on the old system that I ever saw was about 216 for the level 60 spells. So I don't think it would have any affect on a 250+ skillup path.

Ok i dont get this new system at all im trying to make a spell on my chanter a regular ol' lvl 16 spell and i have NO idea what to do and cant figure out where to find the recipe for anything... i dont get it, not at all.

i deleted my book of binding.. sold all my pages .. i have BANK SPACE again im so happy happy happy ! .. ive done a couple combines with the new spells and the nice thing is everything is pretty much bought in CR ...
